Sunday's Power Forward Value Rankings
Here are the power forward value rankings for Sunday, December 13:
Value Rankings
PG | SG | SF | PF | C
Top Options
| NAME | OPPONENT | VALUE |
|---|---|---|
| Jon Leuer (PHX) | vs. MIN | 8 |
| Serge Ibaka (OKC) | vs. UTA | 8 |
| Derrick Favors (UTA) | at OKC | 8 |
| Nerlens Noel (PHI) | at TOR | 7 |
Leuer has been the beneficiary of Tyson Chandler's poor health and Markieff Morris' dwindling favor with head coach Jeff Hornacek; if he gets at least 20 minutes of floor time, he's almost a lock to tally 12 points, six rebounds and a handful of peripheral stats. At his price, that presents a ton of value.
Best of the Rest
| NAME | OPPONENT | VALUE |
|---|---|---|
| Zach Randolph (MEM) | at MIA | 6 |
| Trevor Booker (UTA) | at OKC | 6 |
| Luis Scola (TOR) | vs. PHI | 5 |
| Patrick Patterson (TOR) | vs. PHI | 5 |
Randolph is a consistent force but with consistency comes a limited ceiling; he's best suited for Sunday's cash games. Booker's production is harder to predict, but his low DFS salary gives him a good shot to exceed his expectations. Scola and Patterson have the veteran chops but Philadelphia has the youth and athleticism of Noel and Jahlil Okafor in the paint.
Nothing to See Here
| NAME | OPPONENT | VALUE |
|---|---|---|
| Chris Bosh (MIA) | vs. MEM | 3 |
| Markieff Morris (PHX) | vs. MIN | 2 |
Memphis has punished opposing PFs and with Bosh's 3-point shooting down from 37.5% last season to 35.4% this year, he might not be able to punish the Grizzlies' lumbering bigs with his outside shot. For a slightly higher price, Favors is a much more favorable option than Bosh.
